Rupert Everett from Dellamorte Dellamore (Cemetery Man) in Size 12 Times New Roman using these valid characters ” .…‚,:;aceflmnstux¦” with the ¦ being search and replaced with code for bold l and the other chracters being assigned a coloured shade code.

It’s gone awfully quiet.

One of the great things is that the software is so quick to get up, what I do is I just save the defaults if I wish to keep working in that directory and reboot the software. So, it’s easily workaroundable.

My ideas are:
1) Remove the Auto button from monospace fonts.
2) Incorporate styles (bold, italic, etc) into the input box.
3) Insert an input selection option from the menus. I’m not sure what to call them, but I was thinking all of the input values should have a `o’ to the left of them, that is on or off depending on which input is selected. Would work better than a submenu. The inputs of course at present would be just Ramp and Auto. Whenever it’s a variable width gen or combination of multiple styles (or fonts) it defaults back to Auto. Maybe the Font feature in the right-click menu — that I suggest in point 3 — becomes unavailable when in ramp.
4) Add a highlight text in the input box, right-click menu option for Font, to change style/size/font of the selected characters.
5) Add an output to HTML/RTF option.

The way I envision it is that this feature would be `hidden’, essentially. The most impressive thing about AscGen is its ability to generate in simple text format. So that everything essentially remains the same. However, other users can play around and experiment with a greater degree of control.

I still haven’t figured out how many bold characters (or italic characters even) I would incorporate because I have too little knowledge about creating fonts in font editing software; whenever I copy and paste a bold character and insert it into a regular font, say the character `f’, it will come up distorted, for Times New Roman at size 12, without the middle line of the `f’. And I found this on Fontforge and a commercial program on trial. Can’t figure out what I’m doing wrong?

The only character thus far I’m confident in in bold is `l’. Variable width conversions also work best with slender characters. I think it’s in the very nature, that because the height doesn’t change and you can pack more in in width (if you ever need an idea for character selection in the Auto generation, for Variable width it should be an emphasis on characters with the smallest width). Not sure how incorporating bold will have an impact beyond the improvement that the `l’ creates.

buddy, ur work is amzing

i got a illusion, why not use color chars to make color pics? umm is that possible????i think it is logical

I might try and create my own font using those characters.

By the way, behind Firefox I think your software is the software I most frequently use.

Also, “???? ” is my new favourite ramp. I just wish I could sort out the problems with non-standard characters.
